Perth Now3 days ago
Zac Brown is engaged to marry jewellery designer Kendra Scott after a whirlwind romance.
The Zac Brown Band star, 46, went public with his new relationship in May when the couple walked the red carpet at the American Music Awards in Las Vegas and reports suggested they had been dating for several months - and now they are planning a wedding after the musician presented Kendra, 51, with a pink diamond ring.
The happy couple told PEOPLE: "We are so happy and grateful that we found each other."
A source added to the publication: "They were set up by a mutual friend, and are totally in love. They are head over heels and have become inseparable."
The wedding will mark Zac's third trip down the aisle. He was previously married to Shelly Sloan - the mother of his five children - but the union ended in divorce in 2018 after 12 years.
At the time, the former couple noted they felt "blessed" to have been together for so long and would always "love" their family but they had grown apart as they looked forward to their "next venture" in life.
In a statement, they explaiemd: "We feel blessed to be on such an incredible journey in life and sometimes the journey begins to lead in different directions. It is with deep love and respect that we announce we are separating as a couple.
"We have led a whirlwind life together growing into a beautiful family with five amazing children and while life will be rearranging a bit, our love and commitment to our family will always be there.
"This was a difficult decision, but we've done plenty of tough things together and this is our next venture — love, mutual respect, and care for each other are what we are moving forward with."
Zac went on to tie the knot with model/actress Kelly Yazdi in August 2023 but the couple split just four months after the wedding.
In a joint statement released at the time, they told TMZ.com: "We are in the process of divorce. Our mutual respect for one another remains.
"We wish each other the best and will always appreciate our time together. As we navigate this personal matter, we simply request privacy during this time."

Actress Nicole Kidman thanks this everyday skincare product for her age-defying looks

Australian actress Nicole Kidman reveals sunscreen is the key to her daily skincare routine. The age-defying star thanked her years of dedicated SPF use for keeping her skin healthy and radiant. The Practical Magic 2 star announced on July 25 her new role as Global Brand Ambassador for Japanese skincare and beauty brand, Clé de Peau Beauté. Kidman, 58, says it's a brand her make-up artist has used on her for years. One of her favourite products from the line is the UV Protection Cream SPF 50+. 'I went to Wimbledon and this is what I wore — it's so good,' Kidman told PEOPLE. Raised in Sydney, on the Northern Beaches, the Hollywood star grew up with sunscreen as a daily essential. In an interview with Vogue, she revealed her rules on skincare. 'It's the one thing I teach my girls,' Kidman said. 'For my girls, I'll use like a 30, but I like the SPF 50 for me, which is the one that I use. 'I also love the sheer zinc because for me it's such a great protection for my nose and for my shoulders and when I'm working.' The mum-of-two also shared that building her confidence is what helps the actress feel good on the inside. 'I am raising girls in their teens — you realise the importance of empowering other women,' Kidman told PEOPLE. 'The way in which when you are empowered, that sort of inner confidence actually shows through, and to me that's very beautiful.' The new campaign also features Kidman's youngest daughter, Faith Margaret, 14, whom she shares with her husband, singer Keith Urban. 'We flew out together and we were able to just have fun on the set,' Kidman reflected. 'It was just sort of a magical, dreamlike experience, which I hope when people see the campaign, they get. 'She's my baby, and it was a sweet little way to capture her at 14. 'It was one of those things where you say, 'This isn't a job. This is actually a gift'.' Kidman and Urban's eldest daughter, Sunday Rose, 17, recently launched her modelling career. Earlier this year, the rising star landed her first major campaign, fronting a new luxury advert for Italian fashion brand Miu Miu. Loading Instagram Post Kidman added she feels most beautiful when she's with her daughters. 'I love doing hot yoga right now, so I feel really good about an hour after that,' she said. 'My daughters and I, we do it together, and we call it the glow up. 'We look red-faced and ragged when we come out, but about an hour later, wow.' Shop more SPF products in Australia:

Jamie Lee Curtis admits she's 'very much like' Janet Leigh

Jamie Lee Curtis thinks she's like her mom "in many, many, ways". The 66-year-old actress is the daughter of screen idols Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh, and Jamie admits that she could see a lot of herself in her mom, who passed away in 2004, aged 77. The Hollywood star - who has been married to Christopher Guest since 1984 - told People: "I tried to do everything not to be my mother. And, of course, I'm very much like my mother in many, many, ways. "My admiration for her has swelled as my disappointments have lessened. I know that my mother was so proud of me and and what I've achieved, that she respected my husband's work and was thrilled to be a grandma." Despite this, Jamie thinks her mom would've "loathed" her appearance in Everything Everywhere All at Once, the 2022 comedy-drama film. The actress explained: "My mother's been gone a long time. And today I have a freedom to be myself that my mother's generation would never have allowed. My mother would've been incredibly upset at Everything Everywhere All at Once and how I looked." Jamie believes her mom's generation was more image-orientated than her own. And she thinks that Janet would've disliked her appearance in The Last Showgirl, too. The veteran actress - who remains one of Hollywood's most bankable stars - explained: "Her generation was so much about your body and what you look like. And the beauty. The beauty is just who she was. That's what her life was. "My mother was literally jaw dropping. But I think that would've been very hard for her to see me with my tummy sticking out. Or in [the film] Last Showgirl, for her to see me in that dressing room at 66 years old. That really would've upset her. "I know her very well. I have accepted myself in a much bigger way than I think she felt she was allowed to, through her generation."

Billy Joel's wife was 'unimpressed' by his musical talents

Billy Joel's wife was "very unimpressed with the whole Billy Joel thing" when they first met. The 76-year-old star tried to woo Alexis, 43, with his musical talents during the early days of their romance, but she was completely unimpressed by his efforts. In the new HBO documentary series Billy Joel: And So It Goes, he explains: "I remember the first time I met Alexis, we went to my house, and I wanted to play the piano for her. It's a form of communication for me." Billy assumed that Alexis would be wowed by his award-winning talents. However, she was unmoved when he played the piano for her. Billy - who married Alexis in 2015 - said: "I'm playing that and she's completely unimpressed with it, totally. She couldn't care less what I'm playing and I'm thinking, 'Oh OK, this isn't working.' "She was very unimpressed with the whole Billy Joel thing, which impressed me. Because I thought, 'OK, maybe she's just here because she likes me, not the Billy Joel guy.'" The music star - who has daughters Della, nine, and Remy, seven, with Alexis - made a conscious effort to develop their relationship away from the spotlight. He explained: "We had a couple years together before we had kids and he had completely stopped doing shows. We travelled everywhere. We did a motorcycle trip from Maine down to Long Island, we were on boats 24/7. We were in Europe. We had so much fun." Meanwhile, Billy recently admitted that he was hesitant about committing to his HBO documentary. The music icon revealed that he was reluctant to reflect on some of the "stupid stuff" he's done in the past. He told People: "I've resisted this kind of thing for so long. I'm sick of talking about myself. Some of the stupid stuff I did, that's painful to talk about. (But) they asked me for some thematic guidance. I said, 'Just tell the truth.'" Billy initially just wanted to get the documentary "over with" because he doesn't enjoy talking about himself. The Uptown Girl hitmaker said: "My goal was to get it over with. "When I do interviews, people just ask you about yourself and you get a little self-conscious about it eventually. It's almost embarrassing. "When you're talking about your personal life detached from the material ... I suppose there's a little bit of wariness involved."
